Golden Eyed Angel
I just wanted to climb the tree. I wanted to prove to my brothers that I could climb higher than they could. And I did prove that, but it came at a cost. I found myself a moment later scrunched up on the grass with my mouth open in a scream of pain. I was a foolish girl, just like all my family members have called me in the past. I don't know why it took me so long to find that out.
I am dragged to the hospital by my parents and my laughing brothers. They think it is amusing that I'm in pain. Well I will show them soon enough...
The nurses are not very gentle with me but I don't care anymore. Nothing could make this pain any worse than it already is. I've never broken bones before until now. It is the most awful feeling the world I think.
The nurses give me a syringe of something that makes me slip in and out of consciousness for a while, and I can't tell if I'm dreaming or even if I'm still alive.
There is a man here, he is someone I have never seen before. I have never seen anyone like him in this world before in fact. He has golden eyes and hair like sun. I don't know his name, but this is the first new piece of information I want to learn.
He is a doctor. He knows my name but I have yet to learn his. He looks at me in a way no one has ever looked at me before. Not even my parents whom I know love me dearly as anyone else in thie world. But this doctor looks at me like I'm the only person on earth, like I can save him, even though he is the one who is saving me right now.
I hear his voice and it's the most lovely sound I've ever heard. Like music. I want to hear it for the rest of eternity, nothing but the sound of his voice telling me everything will be just as it was before this mess. I will go back to a normal healthy teenage girl on my farm. My brothers will not tease me anymore because I've proven that I'm braver than all of them combined. I'm sure that none of them could handle this pain and embarrassment.
The doctor says I'm one of the bravest patients he's ever treated. I blush.
My visit to the hospital is over far to soon. I don't want to go back to the farm with my scolding parents and jeering brothers. I want to stay here with the sweet doctor forever. I never learned his name, though. I was too drugged to hear him when he told me his name. I regret forever never knowing it.
Years later I thought I only imagined the whole incident in my mind. Someone like that doctor with the golden hair and eyes just couldn't have been real.
The end.
